Communiqué, the inter-college literary meet of the BESC, in its 4th avatar saw spirited participation from 12 premier Institutes of Kolkata – the St. Xavier’s College, J.D.Birla (BBA), J.D. Birla (B.Com.), Ashustosh College, Sri Shikshayatan, ILead, Amity, Hazra Law College , IBS , JCC Law College & Jadavpur University .

Students thrashed it out across 13 events like The Controvert (Debate) , The quill (Creative Writing), Wordsworth(The Word Inspector)etc., and were judged for their spontaneity, thought, leadership qualities, interpersonal and presentation skills in front of an audience comprising of appreciative students who were equally quick to put their hands together in an applause as they were in lashing those who failed to live up to their exacting expectations. A galaxy of stars – winners in their own right – were present to judge individual events, encouraging, even accommodating in parental indulgence, yet firm in the conduct of the serious business of fest-ing.

Jimmy Tangree, the voice of Kolkata and the personification of her life’s rhythm was there as a judge; as were Pranab Mukherjee from UNESCO, Theatre & Media personality per excellence; Mitali Sengupta, noted educationist and communication expert Chawm Ganguly. Jimmy Tangree was ecstatic about the high standards that were attained in course of the competitions “Kolkata is on the right course and it is great to see the campus’ rocking ” he said. Pranab Mukherjee himself an avid quizzard and debater in his college days, agreed “the delivery, the content, the structure of the arguments, the puns , intended to pin the opponent or otherwise , were all not only in excellent taste but also executed perfectly and reminds one of the days of yore. It was a pleasure being here today.”
